The angular magnification,
Does the value of the angular magnification depend on the location of the observer? Explain. Consider the two examples in this tutorial. In each case, is the absolute value of the angular magnification greater than, less than, or equal to one? (If your answer depends on observer location, choose an observer who can see the entire image.)
Does the angular magnification tell you whether the image will appear larger than the object without the lens? Explain why or why not.

- People who do very detailed work close up, such as jewelers, often can see objects clearly at much closer distance than the normal 25 cm. (a) What is the power of the eyes of a woman who can see an object clearly at a distance of only 8.00 cm? (b) What is the image size of a 1.00-mm object, such as lettering inside a ring, held at this distance? (c) What would the size of the image be if the object were held at the normal 25.0 cm distance?arrow_forwardWhat is the angular size of the Moon if viewed from a binocular that has a focal length of 1.2 cm for the eyepiece and a focal length of 8 cm for the objective? Use the radius of the moon 1.74106 m and the distance of the moon from the observer to be 3.8108m .arrow_forwardTwo thin lenses with focal lengths of magnitude 15.0 cm, the first diverging and the second converging, are placed 12.00 cm apart. An object 3.00 mm tall is placed 5.50 cm to the left of the first (diverging) lens. Where is the image formed by the first lens located? Please provide a detailed explanation of the process. How far from the object is the final image formed? Please describe the steps taken to reach to your conclusion.arrow_forward
- A 1.5 cmcm high object is located 30 cmcm from a diverging lens, whose focal length is 11 cmcm . What is the height of the image produced by the lens? You have determined the height of the image using numerical methods and, in so doing, have also determined its position, s′s′s'. Now, use graphical methods to evaluate your results.The diagram below shows the object, a ray (ray 1) parallel to the optic axis of the lens, and a ray (ray 2) proceeding toward the first focal point of the lens. Draw the refracted rays and the image produced by the lens. Make sure you extend the refracted rays sufficiently backward in order to find the image. Keep in mind that principal-ray diagrams must be drawn accurately to give good results!arrow_forwardImagine you were provided with a lens, lens holder, screen, sheet of paper, meter rule, clamp& stand, cross wires(object) and a touch light source. Identify the type of lens you have been provide with. Explain your answer Hence write down: two characteristics of the image formed the distance d of the image formed from the lens what is the significance of d?

- please help me answer the followingarrow_forwardYou have a thin, diverging lens. If the value of q (the distance from the image to the mirror along the principal axis of the mirror) is -4.47cm and the distance of p (the distance from the object to the mirror along the principal axis of the mirror) is 24.97cm, what is the focal length of the diverging lens?
